'Mirror's Edge' Video Game Lands TV Series at Endemol Shine Studios

Electronic Arts' "Mirror's Edge" is headed to the small screen. According to Deadline, Endemol Shine Studios will adapt the video game for television.

A dystopian thriller, "Mirror's Edge" takes place in a future where couriers called "runners" take up the dangerous job of transporting messages without tipping government surveillance. The story follows a runner named Faith, who inadvertently becomes involved in a conspiracy against Conglomerate government which could end society as she knows it.

“We clearly see 'Mirror’s Edge' as a franchise for the global TV audience,” Sharon Hall, President of Endemol Shine Studios, said in a statement. “It has a strong female protagonist, a wildly rabid fan base and a worldwide brand that Electronic Arts and EA DICE have done an amazing job establishing.”

"Mirror's Edge" was originally released in 2007. A reboot of the franchise, "Mirror’s Edge Catalyst," will debut on June 7.
